hi xmlbeans developers,
I was trying to use xmlbeans with saxon and was experiencing a minor
problem. It turns out that xmlbeans isn't quite adhering to the sax
spec.
A minor change fixes the problem:
$ svn diff
Index: src/xmlstore/org/apache/xmlbeans/impl/store/Saver.java
===================================================================

if (prefix.length() == 0)
- _attributes.addAttribute( "", "", "xmlns", "CDATA", uri );
+ _attributes.addAttribute(
"http://www.w3.org/2000/xmlns/";, "xmlns", "xmlns", "CDATA", uri );
else
{
_attributes.addAttribute(
- "", "", "xmlns:" + prefix, "CDATA", uri );
+ "http://www.w3.org/2000/xmlns/";, "xmlns",
"xmlns:" + prefix, "CDATA", uri );
}
}
Any objections to the "correctness" of this?
Thanks,
Ben Anderson
